🧀 Happy National Cheese Day!

Did you know cheese is more than just a favorite topping or snack? It's also a valuable source of protein and calcium for families facing food insecurity.

At the St. Louis Area Foodbank, we're celebrating the power of nutritious food (including dairy products) which brings comfort and provides nourishment to our neighbors. Now that's Gouda stuff!

Every donation helps provide meals and essential groceries to individuals and families throughout the bi-state region we serve.

🥚 Today is National Egg Day!

Eggs are one of nature's most nutrient-dense foods. Packed with high-quality protein, vitamins, and minerals, they help fuel growing kids, support healthy aging, and provide lasting energy.

Versatile and nutritious, eggs can be enjoyed at breakfast, lunch, dinner, or even as a snack.

🍳 Let's settle this once and for all... How do you like your eggs?
👍 Scrambled
❤️ Fried
😮 Sunny Side Up
😂 Omelet
🥰 Hard-Boiled

Or tell us your favorite in the comments! 👇
Bonus question: What's the one ingredient you always add to your eggs?

At the St. Louis Area Foodbank, we meet neighbors every day who are doing everything they can to care for their families, and sometimes just need a little extra support along the way.

Recently at one of our Food Access and Resource Markets (FARMs), our neighbor Henry shared his story with us:

“This is my first time here. It’s been tough lately. I’m on disability, and I’m raising my grandkids, teenage boys. They’re athletic, and they need to eat good, nourishing food. I’m excited about the apples and the potatoes, they’re going to love that.”

Henry’s story is a reminder that food insecurity can affect anyone. Many of our neighbors are balancing rising costs, health challenges, caregiving responsibilities, and unexpected life changes. Sometimes all at once.

We are proud to provide fresh, nutritious food in a welcoming space where neighbors can access support with dignity and compassion. And to anyone who may be struggling right now: you are not alone.
